Nano-case that barely keeps 9900K cool using AIO - sort of acceptable
Let's put in a hotter chip - hmm
Air cool - STAHP...

Yeah I was actually so surprised that they even offered air cooling as an option that I had to go look up Dell's sales page, sure enough they have a low profile air cooling option for the R10.

It might be a 1151 fan, but it's not the stock Intel fan. Dell sources their own OEM fan/heatsink combo. The R10 has the double VRM heatsink so the stock service manual photo does look like an R9 photo. If you want the part number for it you will have to chat up Dell support. Not that it will do you much good other than to purchase it from Dell. The fan/heatsink is a Dell part, manufactured for and wholesaled to Dell to their specs, not a retail part. The R10 is so new you're unlikely to find anyone parting theirs out on the third party flipper market. As it is Dell is having enough problems just trying to fulfill orders in a timely manner. Are you just trying to get the dimensions so you can swap it out with a more efficient aftermarket cooler?

just the other day a user was asking for a quiet fan to replace R10 AIO fan.
Dell definitely loves their Legendary Industrial fan, despite community outcry for its noise and demerits. see this YouTube from AW. New Legend Industrial Design

the standard base ryzen air cooler from Dell is for 65W cpu (designed for 1st generation ryzen in Inspiron 5675) and has an all aluminum base and simple aluminum fins. therefore it is not suitable for higher power cpu or overclocking.
there is another Dell oem ryzen air cooler with copper base and copper pipes, which looks much better and probably suitable for 95-105W 3rd generation ryzen in R10.

Yeah. But would it fit within the SFF confines of the R10? I.e., built within Intel's 100mm square keep out zone and under 55mm in height? It's easy to find a 100+ W TPD air cooler. It's not easy to find a 100W TDP air cooler that fits the R10.

if you have not seen this Alienware has a video comparing liquid to air cooling in R9/10.

when @sirach73 first asked this question, I did a crude estimate of maximum air cooler height that can fit the R10 case. https://www.dell.com/community/Alienware-Desktops/Aurora-R10-Air-cooler-specs/m-p/7531498
my estimate was 80 mm top. I think the copper heat sink will likely fit by the look of it. but it would not look like an alien cooler. afaik aliens have been using exclusive liquid nitrogen vapor cooling since they descended on this planet and multiply.
